    A note from the author:

    I wrote this book because I want to help others find their voices. Each of us deserves to be heard, to share our ideas, to influence the world, to make a difference. There are so many ways to MAKE A SPLASH! Let’s be bold and make it a big one!

    Prologue

    The one time I distinctly remember my Dad taking and holding my hand was when he walked me into my new school. I was ten-years-old and terrified to start school in a new town. This is a vivid memory of feeling safe and protected.

    We had just moved from a beautiful, sprawling farm to a quiet suburban street with sidewalks and neighbors. I would miss the smell of fresh sheets off the clothesline, playing outside from sun up to sundown, but mostly, I would miss the peace. On the farm, there was no one but family around us. And family loved no matter what.

    Pork chops and applesauce.

    That’s what they used to whisper in my ear during middle school. I was overweight. I had been overweight since I was in first grade. Spending most of my younger years wanting to die was a horrible way to live, but I had no idea how to cope.

    I cried all the time. No one could protect me or make the pain go away. Nor could have anyone convinced me that one day I’d be working as an Empowerment Coach. I wouldn’t believe them that I would one day teach others how to stand up for themselves and make a splash in the world.

    The ability to overcome what holds us back comes as a result of finding our voice and deciding to take action. My coaching practice and passion instigation has developed over a long journey lasting more than 30 years. It’s time for me to speak up. Now is the time for me to help people access what they already know and need to hear again. Let’s get started!

    How to Use This Book

    The best way to use this book is to start with what you need. Each chapter addresses a common barrier preventing us from using our voices and living our most amazing lives. After the short, inspirational readings in each chapter, there are options for taking action. You can choose specific, weighted actions (pebbles, stones, or boulders) to make a small ripple, a bigger splash, or a giant kerplunk, depending on where you are on your journey.

    Have fun with it. Give the strategies a go. Reread sections for clarity and motivation. Most importantly, share your learning with others. Sharing and inspiring others is a
